Dual Listing in - Two Markets for the Price of One

The Dual Listing arrangement allows companies traded on certain stock exchanges, to trade on the Tel- Aviv as well, based on the regulation imposed on them in their home (primary) market. This means that all reporting, disclosure and corporate governance of the company will remain the same. After dual listing, the companies will also be able to raise money on TASE based on their foreign prospectus, in compliance with their primary market regime. In addition, companies will also be able to issue bonds and other securities that are not traded in their home markets.
